Sheet metal bend stock distance problem

Recommended Posts

Is anyone else having problems with editing distance of added stock to bends using the shape tool?

 

In the attachments, you'll see I have tried to alter the distance of stock on the bend from the side on the original from 1.58mm to 3.

 

After pressing enter, the triangular node shifts across, but the bend stock stays put. The only was to alter the bend stock length is to use the sizebox, which in this case is inconvenient.

 

Any advise welcome - thanks.

Yes, this is a new, probably unintentional, behavior because of the "associative to edge" function.

It is only possible to edit the shape using the Sizebox handle, but after you've done that (or if you deselect that option on the Sizebox handle) it should then be possible to use the Shape handle and its menu as well. Though that doesn't always seem to be working. This is known and should have been reported before as well.
